Grade 1M Puppet Show - DANCING ANIMALS

Hi everyone,

Today we made a puppet show called DANCING ANIMALS. We made invitations for all of the children in 1M at our houses and we even made a seating plan. After that we set up all the chairs and we were ready for the show. The kids loved the show! It was fun! There is even a video that Mrs. Meyer took. Please check it out after you look at all the pictures.

Square Dancing - Grade 1M

Grade 1M had SO much fun this week as we learned to square dance with Mr. Bob Dallman - a square dance caller for over 42 years! Here are some pictures of us. Head couples, promenade, bridge, and flutterwheel were just a few of the amazing things that we heard and did!

Remembrance Day with Our ELIM Grandbuddies - Grade 1M

On Friday afternoon Grade 1M had the privilege of spending time with our ELIM Grandbuddies and doing a Remembrance Day craft together. We also had the honour of listening to Mr. George Gunn - one of our Grandbuddies - talk about his experiences as a WWII veteran. He even brought the official uniform that he wore as a Canadian soldier and all of the medals that he received - just for us! Even without the treat that we got it was an amazing afternoon!

Firefighter Brian Visits Grades 1V and 1M








Today we invited Mr. Brian MacGillivray into our classroom to teach us about fire safety. Firefighter Brian is a firefighter with the Vancouver Fire Department. He told us all about the ABC's of fire safety, smoke detectors, how to safely leave a burning building, how to make a fire plan to get out of our homes in case of a fire, and when to STOP, DROP and ROLL. Firefighter Brian also showed us some of the awesome (and noisy) equipment that he uses when he is working hard to fight fires! We even got Fire Chief hats to remember the day!!
